We headed down to South Padre Island for our annual beach trip the end of March with the Barlows and the Jensons. It was soooooooooooooooooo nice to relax in the sun and listen to the surf for the weekend. Sitting on the beach, watching the kids play in the sand and in the waves with their friends is one of my favorite things to do. If we were closer to the beach, I could spend every weekend there. In fact, I am ready to go back Right Now!!!

Luke and his best buddy, Jack, had fun playing together this trip.
Although, they could be deemed polar opposites:
1 hater of all things sand = 1 clean baby
1 lover of playing in and eating all the sand = 1 dirty,
but very happy baby : )

This picture captures the two boys' version of playing in the sand.
Luke had to keep his shoes on so he wouldn't touch the sand and
sat in one spot while Jack dived right into the sandy, muddy mess
of the mote and played and played.

We finally figured out where Luke was the happiest:
sitting on a boogie board playing with buckets of water.
His favorite thing was pouring out his sprinkler bucket over
and over again.

The big kids had a blast playing in the waves. Even Savannah
got the hang of catching some good waves.

 |
Do you think these two are brothers or what??
|
 |
When they got tired of playing in the water, the kids spent hours
playing in the sand and building their ginormous sand castle
(with a little help from the daddies and their BIG shovels. : )

And of course we had to make a trip back to The
Big Donkey for dinner! (Yummy Mexican for those
of us that don't love fishy items for dinner.) Next time . . .

Before we could go home, we had to walk the beach and
gather shells.

I'm ready to go again!
